I am honored and excited to announce that I am now an Operation:  Love Reunited photographer!  Through OpLove, photographers across the country offer their art as a form of giving back to those who so selflessly give of themselves.

Operation: Love Reunited 411

What is it? 

Operation: Love Reunited (aka OpLove) is a non-profit organization that allows photographers to give back to military families by offering FREE photo sessions and albums to be sent to the deployed soldier (at NO cost to the family). 

Please visit OpLove’s website at www.oplove.org for more detailed information. 

What kind of sessions are available?

There are three types of  sessions offered through OpLove.  All three sessions will have a patriotic theme.  If it is a pre-deployment session, we ask the soldier to wear their uniform for the majority of the session.   

Pre-Deployment - the soldier and their family meet with the photographer to capture memories of the family to be sent to the soldier in an album form

Deployed - the family of the soldier meet with the photographer to creat memories of the family that will be sent overseas to the deployed soldier in an album form

Homecoming – the photographer accompanies the family to the airport to capture all the memories and emotion of the day that the soldier is reunited with his or her family

Can I participate?

If you or an immediate family member is about to be deployed, currently deployed or scheduled for a homecoming, then yes!  You can participate!  Eligible families may participate in up to two sessions per year. 

How do I find a photographer?

Well, if you are not in my immediate area, you can visit http://www.oplove.org/oplovefinder/index.php to locate a photographer in your area.

What’s the catch? 

No catch!  Really!  You get a FREE photo session and a FREE photo album!  I only ask that the soldier wear their uniform for the majority of the shoot (for pre-deployment sessions) and that we keep a patriotic theme throughout the shoot.
